    I'm getting the following message from MCC_EXPORTER_BACKGROUND.LOG

    I have tried to delete export (node4 snmp) * (line, cir, interface) *,

Which version of VMS and DECmcc are you running?

    I am running VMS version 5.5 and DECmcc version 1.2 (SSB). They were
    imbedded in the problem statement of .0, I'll put them the very first
    next time.

    Exporting has stayed up for a full day now. I deleted all exporting,
    renamed the mcc_export.* files, but this time I deleted the 
    mcc_..."time_stamp"...mcc_exp* files that may have been remnants 
    from V1.2.7.
    
    Hopefully, future releases won't require manual deletion of files.

    Bob

    The exporter background job ran for 12 days and died with the following

    This is the same system as .0
    
    MCC_AUDIT didn't find any problems for account CASEY.
